Exodus 32
1 And the people see that Moses is delaying to come down from the mountain, and the people assemble against Aaron, and say to him, “Rise, make gods for us, who go before us, for this Moses—the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt—we have not known what has happened to him.”
Rĩrĩa andũ moonire atĩ Musa nĩaikarire mũno ataikũrũkĩte kuuma kĩrĩma-inĩ, magĩcookanĩrĩra harĩ Harũni makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũka, tũthondekere ngai iria irĩtũtongoragia. Ha ũhoro wa mũndũ ũyũ ũgwĩtwo Musa, ũrĩa watũrutire bũrũri wa Misiri, tũtiũĩ ũrĩa oonete.”
2 And Aaron says to them, “Break off the rings of gold which [are] in the ears of your wives, your sons, and your daughters, and bring [them] to me”;
Harũni akĩmacookeria akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Rutai icũhĩ cia thahabu iria irĩ matũ ma atumia anyu, na aanake na airĩtu anyu mũndehere.”
3 and all the people break off the rings of gold which [are] in their ears, and bring [them] to Aaron,
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ othe makĩruta icũhĩ cia thahabu icio ciarĩ matũ-inĩ mao magĩcirehere Harũni.
4 and he receives [it] from their hand, and fashions it with an engraving tool, and makes it [into] a molten calf, and they say, “These [are] your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt!”
Nake akĩoya indo iria maamũreheire, agĩcitwekia agĩtũmĩra indo cia ũbundi gũcithondeka mũhianano wa njaũ. Nao andũ makiuga atĩrĩ, “Ici nĩcio ngai ciaku, wee Isiraeli, iria ciakũrutire bũrũri wa Misiri.”
5 And Aaron sees, and builds an altar before it, and Aaron calls, and says, “A festival to YHWH—tomorrow”;
Rĩrĩa Harũni onire ũguo, agĩaka kĩgongona mbere ya njaũ ĩyo, na akĩanĩrĩra, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Rũciũ nĩgũgakorwo na gĩathĩ kĩa Jehova.”
6 and they rise early on the next day, and cause burnt-offerings to ascend, and bring peace-offerings near; and the people sit down to eat and to drink, and rise up to play.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ andũ magĩũkĩra rũciinĩ tene, makĩruta magongona ma njino na ma ũiguano. Thuutha ũcio magĩikara thĩ kũrĩa na kũnyua, magĩcooka magĩũkĩra kũina na gwĩkenia.
7 And YHWH says to Moses, “Go, descend, for your people whom you have brought up out of the land of Egypt have done corruptly,
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Ikũrũka, tondũ andũ aku arĩa warutire bũrũri wa Misiri nĩmethũkĩtie.
8 they have quickly turned aside from the way that I have commanded them; they have made a molten calf for themselves, and bow themselves to it, and sacrifice to it, and say, These [are] your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt!”
Nĩmagarũrũkĩte narua magatiga ũrĩa ndaamathĩte, na nĩmethondekeire mũhianano wa gũtwekio ũhaana njaũ. Nĩmaũinamĩrĩire na makaũrutĩra iruta makiugaga atĩrĩ, ‘Ici nĩcio ngai ciaku, wee Isiraeli, iria ciakũrutire bũrũri wa Misiri.’”
9 And YHWH says to Moses, “I have seen this people, and behold, it [is] a stiff-necked people;
Jehova akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Nĩnyonete andũ aya, nĩ andũ momĩtie ngingo.
10 and now, leave Me alone, and My anger burns against them, and I consume them, and I make you become a great nation.”
Rĩu tigana na niĩ nĩgeetha marakara makwa mamarĩrĩmbũkĩre, nĩgeetha ndĩmaniine. Nĩngacooka ngũtue rũrĩrĩ rũnene.”
11 And Moses appeases the face of his God YHWH and says, “Why, O YHWH, does Your anger burn against Your people, whom You have brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a strong hand?
No Musa agĩthaitha Jehova Ngai wake, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wee Jehova, ũngĩcinwo nĩ marakara ũũkĩrĩre andũ aku nĩkĩ, o arĩa warutire kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri na guoko gwaku kũrĩ ũhoti na ũkĩmaruta kuo na hinya mũnene?
12 Why do the Egyptians speak, saying, He brought them out in calamity to slay them among mountains, and to consume them from off the face of the ground? Turn back from the heat of Your anger, and relent from this calamity against Your people.
Nĩ kĩĩ kĩngĩtũma andũ a Misiri moige atĩrĩ, ‘Aamarutire bũrũri wa Misiri arĩ na muoroto wa kũmeka ũũru amooragĩre irĩma-inĩ, na amaniine mathire gũkũ thĩ’? Tiga kũrakara mũno; wĩricũkwo ndũkarehere andũ aku mwanangĩko.
13 Be mindful of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, Your servants, to whom You have sworn by Yourself, and to whom You speak: I multiply your seed as stars of the heavens, and all this land, as I have said, I give to your seed, and they have inherited [it] for all time”;
Ririkana ndungata ciaku Iburahĩmu, na Isaaka, na Isiraeli, arĩa wee wehĩtire kũrĩ o na mwĩhĩtwa ũkĩĩgwetaga, ũkiuga atĩrĩ: ‘Nĩngatũma njiaro ciaku cingĩhe ta njata cia matu-inĩ, na nĩngaahe njiaro ciaku bũrũri ũyũ wothe ũrĩa ndaamerĩire, naguo ũgaatuĩka igai rĩao nginya tene.’”
14 and YHWH relents from the evil which He has spoken of doing to His people.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Jehova akĩĩricũkwo, na ndaigana kũrehere andũ ake mwanangĩko ũrĩa oigĩte atĩ nĩekũmarehera.
15 And Moses turns, and goes down from the mountain, and the two tablets of the Testimony [are] in his hand, tablets written on both their sides; they [are] written on this [side] and on that [side];
Musa akĩhũndũka, agĩikũrũka kuuma kĩrĩma igũrũ akuuĩte ihengere icio igĩrĩ cia Ũira na moko make. Ciarĩ nyandĩke mĩena yeerĩ, mbere na thuutha.
16 and the tablets are the work of God, and the writing is the writing of God, engraved on the tablets.
Ihengere icio ciarĩ wĩra wa Ngai; maandĩko macio maarĩ maandĩko ma Ngai makururĩtwo ihengere-inĩ icio.
17 And Joshua hears the voice of the people in their shouting and says to Moses, “A noise of battle in the camp!”
Rĩrĩa Joshua aiguire inegene rĩa andũ makiugĩrĩria akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Kũrĩ mbugĩrĩrio ya mbaara kambĩ-inĩ.”
18 And he says, “It is not the voice of the crying of might, nor is it the voice of the crying of weakness—I am hearing a voice of singing.”
Musa akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ti mĩgambo ya ũhootani, na ti mĩgambo ya kũhootwo; nĩ mĩgambo ya kũina ndĩraigua.”
19 And it comes to pass, when he has drawn near to the camp, that he sees the calf, and the dancing, and the anger of Moses burns, and he casts the tablets out of his hands, and breaks them below the mountain;
Rĩrĩa Musa akuhĩrĩirie kambĩ, na akĩona njaũ na ndũrũhĩ ĩrĩa yarĩ kũndũ kũu, agĩcinwo nĩ marakara, nake agĩikia ihengere icio thĩ, ikiunĩkanga icunjĩ o hau magũrũ-inĩ ma kĩrĩma.
20 and he takes the calf which they have made, and burns [it] with fire, and grinds [it] until [it is] small, and scatters [it] on the face of the waters, and causes the sons of Israel to drink.
Nake akĩnyiita njaũ ĩyo maathondekete, akĩmĩcina na mwaki, agĩcooka akĩmĩthĩa, ĩgĩtuĩka mũtu, akĩũikia maaĩ-inĩ na agĩatha andũ a Isiraeli manyue maaĩ macio.
21 And Moses says to Aaron, “What has this people done to you, that you have brought in a great sin on it?”
Nake Musa akĩũria Harũni atĩrĩ, “Andũ aya maragwĩkire atĩa nĩgeetha ũmatoonyie mehia-inĩ manene ũũ?”
22 And Aaron says, “Do not let the anger of my lord burn; you have known the people, that it [is beset] with evil;
Nake Harũni akĩmũcookeria, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Tiga kũrakara, mwathi wakwa; wee nĩũũĩ ũrĩa andũ aya mendete gwĩka ũũru.
23 and they say to me, Make gods for us, who go before us, for this Moses—the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt—we have not known what has happened to him;
Maanjĩĩrire atĩrĩ, ‘Tũthondekere ngai iria irĩtũtongoragia. Ha ũhoro wa mũndũ ũyũ ũgwĩtwo Musa, ũrĩa watũrutire bũrũri wa Misiri-rĩ, tũtiũĩ ũrĩa oonire.’
24 and I say to them, Whoever has gold, let them break [it] off, and they give [it] to me, and I cast it into the fire, and this calf comes out.”
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩmeera atĩrĩ, ‘Ũrĩa wothe ũrĩ na mathaga ma thahabu, nĩarute.’ Nao makĩĩnengera indo icio cia thahabu, ngĩciikia riiko, nacio ikiuma njaũ ĩno!”
25 And Moses sees the people, that it [is] unbridled, for Aaron has made it unbridled for contempt among its withstanders,
Musa akĩona atĩ andũ nĩmakararĩtie, na atĩ Harũni nĩamarekereirie meke ũrĩa mekwenda, nginya magaatuĩka andũ a gũthekagĩrĩrwo nĩ thũ ciao.
26 and Moses stands in the gate of the camp and says, “Who [is] for YHWH? [Come] to me!” And all the sons of Levi are gathered to him;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩrũgama itoonyero-inĩ rĩa kambĩ, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũrĩa wothe ũrĩ mwena wa Jehova-rĩ, nĩoke haha.” Nao Alawii othe makĩrũgama mwena wake.
27 and he says to them, “Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: Each put his sword by his thigh, pass over and turn back from gate to gate through the camp, and each slay his brother, and each his friend, and each his relation.”
Nake akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli ekuuga atĩrĩ, ‘O mũndũ nĩeyohe rũhiũ rwa njora njohero. Hungurai kambĩ ĩno kuuma mwena ũmwe nginya ũrĩa ũngĩ, o mũndũ nĩoorage mũrũ wa nyina na oorage mũratawe na mũndũ wa itũũra rĩake.’”
28 And the sons of Levi do according to the word of Moses, and there falls of the people on that day about three thousand men,
Alawii magĩĩka ta ũrĩa maathirwo nĩ Musa, na mũthenya ũcio gũkĩũragwo andũ ta 3,000.
29 and Moses says, “Consecrate your hand to YHWH today, for a man [is] against his son, and against his brother, so as to bring a blessing on you today.”
Nake Musa akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩmwarĩkia kwamũrĩrwo Jehova ũmũthĩ, nĩgũkorwo nĩmwareganire na ariũ anyu na mũkĩregana na arĩa mũciaranĩirwo nao, na Jehova nĩamũrathima ũmũthĩ.”
30 And it comes to pass, on the next day, that Moses says to the people, “You have sinned a great sin, and now I go up to YHWH, perhaps I can atone for your sin.”
Mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ Musa akĩĩra andũ atĩrĩ, “Nĩmwĩhĩtie mũno. No rĩu, nĩngwambata kũrĩ Jehova; hihi no kũhoteke ndĩmũrutĩre horohio nĩ ũndũ wa rĩhia rĩanyu.”
31 And Moses turns back to YHWH and says, “Ah, now this people has sinned a great sin, that they make a god of gold for themselves;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Musa agĩcooka kũrĩ Jehova, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Hĩ, kaĩ andũ aya nĩmekĩte rĩhia inene-ĩ! Nĩmethondekeire ngai cia thahabu.
32 and now, if You take away their sin—and if not—please blot me out of Your scroll which You have written.”
No rĩu-rĩ, ndagũthaitha marekere mehia mao; angĩkorwo ndũkũmarekera, o na niĩ tharia ibuku-inĩ rĩrĩa wandĩkĩte andũ aku.”
33 And YHWH says to Moses, “Whoever has sinned against Me—I blot him out of My scroll;
Nake Jehova agĩcookeria Musa atĩrĩ, “Ũrĩa wothe ũnjĩhĩirie, nĩngamũtharia ibuku-inĩ rĩakwa.
34 and now, go, lead the people wherever I have spoken to you of; behold, My Messenger goes before you, and in the day of my charging—then I have charged their sin on them.”
Rĩu gĩthiĩ, ũtongorie andũ acio mathiĩ bũrũri ũrĩa ndaaririe ũhoro waguo, nake mũraika wakwa nĩakamũtongoria. Na rĩrĩ, hĩndĩ ya kũmaherithia yakinya-rĩ, no ngaamaherithia nĩ ũndũ wa mehia mao.”
35 And YHWH plagues the people because they made the calf which Aaron made.
Nake Jehova akĩhũũra andũ acio na mũthiro nĩ tondũ wa ũrĩa meekire na njaũ ĩyo yathondeketwo nĩ Harũni.
